Is a background check required for private firearm sales in Hawaii?

  1. Yes, always

  2. No, never

  3. Only for handguns, not for rifles or shotguns

  4. Only if the seller suspects the buyer is prohibited from owning firearms

The correct answer is: Yes, always

In Hawaii, a background check is required for all firearm sales, including private sales. This ensures that individuals who are prohibited from owning firearms, such as felons or individuals with certain mental health issues, are not able to purchase a firearm through private sales. Therefore, the correct answer is "Yes, always." Options B, C, and D are incorrect because in Hawaii, background checks are required for all firearm sales, not just for certain types of firearms or under specific circumstances.
